    A super fun game with loads of replayability as the missions can be accomplished in many different ways.

    Addictive, varied sandbox gameplay. I don't like the original release method, but now that its all compiled here in the definitive edition, there's no reason not to play.

    I like the world of Hitman a lot. Started with Hitman codename 47 on my old PC. I played all games about agent 47. This one is grate. Graphics is brilliant and looks great on PS4 Pro. I like that it’s possible to restart every level and play in many different ways. I finished the game, bit I’m sure I’ll come back to replay again.

    This game is AMAZING.
    This is how video games should be. difficult. honestly i am sick of playing super-simplified children's games for "everyone to play".
    in this game there are 3 difficulties (easy, medium, hard) and they are all calibrated for experienced players. I love stealth games because they also give you that extra difficulty. if I can tell the truth I have lost count of all    This game is AMAZING.

    A great game with good level design and mechanics with a boring story, but no one plays these games for the story anyways.

    how can this game have such a score?
    it may not be perfect (yet), but damn, this is fun. so many possibilities to complete each job, such vast maps, good enough visuals and sounds. it is at the very least a fking fun game.
    specially considering it came for free from psplus this month

    Replay value is high with this one. I love the freedom you have, and the new Agent 47 never looked better.

    Hitman seems a great franchise that I just discovered. I think most of the maps are really well crafted and polished. Graphics are certainly above average here ! I found the game fun for the most part. However, here are a few problems with this game:

    1) If you play Hitman like myself, it will be a short game for you (maybe 8 hours maximum). I don't replay the missions to complete the different challenges. Keep in mind that for the last map (Japan), only 9,5% of the players completed the main mission and less than 1% completed everything (I think it is even less than 0,5% accordong to PSN trophies) so I assume most players don't put a huge amount of hours in this game

    2) If you do mistakes in the beginning of a mission, it can be hard to enjoy the rest of it as you'll be either compromized or pursued. It can encourage save scumming...

    3) Story is weak

    Overal, still a really good game and I'm looking forward to play a few bonus episodes and Hitman 2 and 3 in the future :)    … Expand

    I am not sure how much it has improved from the original versions. But I always finish the Hitman franchise as a completionist aiming for 100% with all challenges and lost & found.

    I think this game had me spend around 40-50 hours of solid gameplay. The missions vary in quality n fun, but overall this game is all about being discrete, or you can go bananas.

    I would definately recommend this.

    Honestly this was such a solid entry to reboot the hitman franchise with, The game is really creative and allows a lot of freedom adding so many new features that just make it stand out from the crowd.

    Easily one of the best Hitman games. The many approaches to each assassination, and depth to each one is astounding. It’s amazing how everything works like clockwork.

    I’m frankly shocked by the low score.

    A classic, it really makes you wanna play each level again and again to find out how to kill your targets differently and discover new ways to use your environment to your advantage. You learn to think like an assassin, stealthy and precise.

    Despite its flaws, Hitman: Definitive Edition is a solid installment in the Hitman franchise and serves as a quality introduction to a reboot of a classic title. The Definitive Edition is a great way for players to pass the time until Hitman 2 launches.

    Agent 47 is still killing it and he now has more ways to look stylish with three exclusive Definitive Edition outfits. However, if you already own the Game of the Year version then there really isn't much new to see here.

    Hitman is back, and this time more complete than ever before. With all the new content bundled with the core game, players get more action served. Sadly most technical flaws still remain, but overall the package succeeds.
